HONOR TO WHOM HONOR is DUE
Footprints of the Grange.

History is getting a little mixed.
Last Summer, at the opening Of the
experiment farm, his excellency, Gov.
Scales, gave the credit gifts concep-
ton to DR.. Battle. He said, (if we
remember correctly "Ten years ago
DR.. Battle urged the establishment
of this experiment farm" 'Ten
years ago. was before the Depart
ment Of Agricultural had an exist
ence, or we had/a State chemist;
The experiment station was located
at Chapel Hillin 1s77;the establish
ment Of an Experiment. Farm was
urged in 1873, and although DR..
Battle was a member of the Board,
his Excellency would be slightly
troubled to find in it's records any
evidence that DR.. B. "urged its es-
tablishment." This announcements
by his Excellency, was received as
joke by those who were informed as
to it's history.
And now our vigilant and fair
minded contemporary, the Iarboro
SOutherner, comes forward and thus
spoils another little historical story
Cdr. Battle, the very highly esteemed
President of the University, is reporter
to have claimed the credit for being the
pioneer in the movement to establish a
State Industrial School. The creGl'
does not belong to DIR. Battle, but the
B%attleboro Grange, No 80, as the follow
ing communication copied in the So@h-
erner on June 18th, 1875 from the state
Agricultural Journal the Grange organ
at that time, shows"
Yes, the Grange originated ono
Department of Agriculture, ana the
address of the Battleboro Grange
shows that they advocated indGS,
trial education in 1875. Had inc
Grange remained united, and hau
exercised its just prerogative OF over
looking the Department OF Its cree"
ton, there would be less complain
among the people to day f ITS lllet ho
ciency.1It was designed for lno
benefit of our farmers, and lheJ
should have control of it.

SOUND VIEWS.

Mr.. w. R. Williams, Of Pitt, is
Master of the State Grange, a mem
Der of our State Board Of Agricul-
ture and also a member of the Sen
ate branch of our Legislature. In
his recent annual address before the
State grange, we find the following
sensible and pointed remarks:
'The grandeur, hagniicence and
perpetuity of this Wonderful nation
of ours will not depend upon her
rich and populous cities, her busy
manufactures, her nickel plated rail
roads, noralmost endless t~eIegraphs,
O her fertile fields Of highest cul-
ture, nordisciplined armies, norproud
navies that ''walk the waters like a
thingof life"-but herglory will be in
her citizens;-in the moral character,
elevated intelligence and enlightened
culture of her sons and daughters.
Our free schools should be closely
watched and nursed u University
sustained and the farmers should
Immediately demand the establish
ment of an agricultural College. The
University annually has an appro-
priation of $500, money that has
been improperly diverted from the
way it was intended. 1t is the in
terest on the donation that was
given to the State for an agricultu-
raj and mechanical college by the
United States in 1862. The farmers
should demand that every dollar
should be repaid them for the pur-
pose intended"

It struck me as a good place to havo
$4,000 when a fellow had nothinn
but a broken back .iack-knife in his
pocket, and Ihave thought. possibly
these immigrants had the hundred,
of thousands they brought into
North Carolina in "their minds"
Certainly, they had it notanvwhere
else. The Department Of Immigra.
ton is not popular in these parts
Some of our older men were in the
war, and some, who have settled
here, are from parts devastated by
the armies Of 1868 and GA, and these
men have decided that it would be-
better for North Carolina to have
as she has always had, a homogen-
Gus people of two classes only. white
and cOlOred, and that we should fol-
low the example set us by that
church that increases its member
ship from the inside, or by rearing
as large families as possible. For
this reason, all in these parts rejoice
in twins, and especially in twin BOYS.
In our opinion, the sub-department
Of immigration is a good thing for
Prof. Patrick and his partner, and
not worth two rabbit skins to the
rest of the people of the State.
But what will be done by the Leg
islature is one of the things that mo
fellow can find out" 1t may dis

partments, or cut the dirt from un-
der some Of the clerks and samplers.
or it may, through the great in
fuence of DR.. Battle, turn the whole
shebang into a sort Of asylum for
faded beauty and decaying great
ness. That such an institution is
needed, there is not room for rea-
sonable doubt, but whether the farm
ers of North Carolina are willing
to pay for it, has made many Of the
members Of the Legislature, in the
Senate branch, sad. The youngman,
who went to Raleigh, says he peep
ed in there and it looked 50 much

GOV. SCALES ON FARMING.

In his message to the legislature
Gov. Scales, referring in justly COM
mandatory terms to the work of the
Experiment station and the necessi-
ty for its establishment, says: "The
great object in view was to promote
the farming interests in the State
upon which all her material inter
ests depend. Our lands, much er-
haasted, as the result of slave labor
demanded strong and stimulating fer
tHizers."
We quote this last remark to ex-
press our regret that such a fallaci-
Gus theory-long since exploded by
the most practical and successful
agriculturalists in this and other
States-should be again brought
forth under the sanction Of such
high authority. We esteem our
worthy chief Executive most highly
and regret that a N of duty to
the farming interests Of the State
forces us to dissent from his theory
The teaching that exhausted soils
demand strong and stimulating COM
mercial fertilizers has cost the farm
ers of North Carolina millions and
millions of dollars since the war
and has well nigh bankrupted every
n who has relied upon it. ok
hausted" soils are not the kind upon
which to use these s'strong and
stimulating fertilizers" but thous-
ands of our farmers have followed
this delusive idea to their ruin. If
a man, after long and excessive
fatigue and hunger becomes exhaust
ed, should we give him plenty of
good nourishing food or should he
have stimulating drink of whiskey?
AS well might we expect to satiate
his hunger and restore his strength
with the whiskey as to give strength
and vigor to exhausted soils by
the use of "strong and stimulating
fertilizers
